This weekβs giveaway is a beautiful pendant that features an artisan-crafted lampwork glass bead as its focal point.
The bead has celestial streaks of deep midnight blue and swirling shades of turquoise. It’s accented with sapphire-colored Swarovski crystals. All of the metal components are sterling silver including the gorgeous beadcaps!
The generously-sized bail should easily fit on most of the chains that you own. Or maybe you have a black cord, or youβll buy a piece of satin ribbon and wear it high on the neck for a look that is trΓ©s chic!
Perfect for a holiday gift . . . or maybe youβll keep it for yourself? π
